Friends since childhood, Auerbach and Carney founded the group after dropping out of college. After signing with indie labelAlive, they released their debut album, The Big Come Up (2002), which earned them a new deal with Fat Possum Records. Over the next decade, the Black Keys built an underground fanbase through extensive touring of small clubs, frequent album releases and music festival appearances, and substantial licensing of their songs. Their third album, Rubber Factory (2004), received critical acclaim and boosted the band's profile, eventually leading to a record deal with major label Nonesuch Records in 2006. After self-producing and recording their first four records in makeshift studios, the duo completed Attack & Release (2008) in a professional studio and hired producer Danger Mouse, a frequent collaborator with the band.

The Black

The Black is a rock band from Austin, Texas that formed in 2002 when singer/songwriter David Longoria began collaborating with drummer Andy Morales. The two were later joined by renowned guitarist Alan Schaefer (son of famous guitar maker Ed Schaefer) and Nick Moulos of the Austin band The Crackpipes.

History

The group began playing regularly at Emo's and house parties until Schaefer moved to France to teach English in 2004. Longoria joined major label act ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead during the band's hiatus, his first performance with them on the Late Show with David Letterman in January 2005. Schaefer joined the rest of the band to support Trail of Dead on their European Worlds Apart tour. During the tour Trail of Dead was the band's backing band for a handful of shows.

Their full-length album Tanglewood was recorded in 2004 and released the spring of 2005 on their own record label K Woo.

The band's next release, titled Donna, was released in the summer of 2007.

Black

Black is the darkest color, the result of the absence of or complete absorption of light. It is the opposite of white (the combined spectrum of color or light). It is an achromatic color, literally a color without color or hue. It is one of the four primary colors in the CMYK color model, along with cyan, yellow, and magenta, used in color printing to produce all the other colors.

Black was one of the first colors used by artists in neolithic cave paintings. In the 14th century, it began to be worn by royalty, the clergy, judges and government officials in much of Europe. It became the color worn by English romantic poets, businessmen and statesmen in the 19th century, and a high fashion color in the 20th century.

In the Roman Empire, it became the color of mourning, and over the centuries it was frequently associated with death, evil, witches and magic. According to surveys in Europe and North America, it is the color most commonly associated with mourning, the end, secrets, magic, force, violence, evil, and elegance.

"In Time"
Where do we go?
And all the people, they sure don't want you to know
They don't want you to know, oh
Livin' in chains, the heart's rearranged
You gotta lure it back, all of the time
Now tell me I'm right, oh
[Pre-Chorus:]
And I got a thing I really can't say
[Chorus:]
You've got a worried mind
I've got a worried heart
You don't know what to do
I don't know where to start
You let this beat us down
Well get up off the ground
One day, I know
We've got to go, oh
Where is your mind?
The street is beating you bad
It's taken it's time, it's taken it's time, oh
Oh, where to run?
I told you to get, but you were having your fun
Now you're under the gun, oh
[Pre-Chorus]

Rig Rundown - The Black Keys' Dan Auerbach (2014)

Premier Guitar’s Chris Kies is on location in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, at the BMOBradley Center to get a rig reprisal on Akron’s favorite guitarist.
In typical Auerbach fashion, the guitar boat is stocked with forgotten oddballs, mostly built in the Chicago area during the ’50s and ’60s. His newest “main” axe is an emerald green ’60s CustomKraft semi-hollowbody that Johnson found on eBay a few months ago. Auerbach bought it immediately. This beauty is used onstage to cover parts of the band’s two newest albums—El Camino and Turn Blue.

His newest “main” axe is an emerald green ’60s CustomKraft semi-hollowbody that Johnson found on eBay a few months ago. Auerbach bought it immediately. This beauty is used onstage to cover parts of the band’s two newest albums—El Camino and Turn Blue. To get this booger rocking, Johnson had to reset the neck because of a horrible backbow—he also added a two-way truss rod to help with future repairs. Johnson then installed new frets, replaced the nut, and added a Rickenbacker-style bridge for better intonation and so it could be pushed a bit off the bridge pickup. Lastly, he outfitted the trem with a “MacGyver”-style solution—an old bent hat rack. Johnson says that the original Valco single-coils in the guitar sound great and Auerbach loves to solo with it in the neck position, with the treble rolled off, and cranking through the Shin-ei Companion fuzz.
Another new addition is a mid-’30s Dobro spider-bridge brass resonator that Auerbach uses on the acoustic intro to “Little Black Submarines” off of El Camino. The brass body gives the guitar a more subdued sound so Auerbach prefers to use this on the beginning of the song rather than a traditional acoustic guitar thanks to the under-saddle B-Band pickup that gives it a very recognizable sound with added panache from the reso. Once the brooding intro is over, he quickly switches to the GuildThunderbird to finish the raucous ending to the song.
The 1964 Guild Thunderbird is still in the mix. The only thing that’s been worked on since the last shoot was Johnson giving the axe a refret job to make it a tad easier to play. Original updates to the guitar included rewinding the bridge pickup—done by Lindy Fralin—and replacing bunk switches. The Thunderbird is the only guitar that is strung up with SITStrings .010–.046 because Auerbach generally plays this guitar on the more reserved songs and prefers a lighter setup. (The other guitars feature regular SIT .011–.050 strings.)
